Early one morning, with time to kill

I borrowed Jeb's rifle, and sat on the hill

  E minorEm           C majorC
I drew a beed on him, to practice my aim

My Brother's rifle went off in my hand
  A minorAm       C majorC     G+G

My brother's rifle, went into the stream

I kept on running, into the salt lands
 E minorEm               C majorC
That's where they found me, my head in my hands

And all for no reason, just one piece of lead

I see the gallows, up on the hill
G+G            C majorC
Out in the distance, a trick of the brain
  E minorEm         F# minorF#m
I see a lone rider, crossing the plain
A minorAm             D MajorD
He's come to give me, to see what they done

We'll ride together, till kingdom come

Pray for no mercy, for soon I'll be dead
